Development Squad Fundraiser

Last Friday evening the annual Sligo GAA Development squad fundraiser took place at IT Sligo’s Knocknarea Arena. Once again a great crowd came out to support the evening. This year we ran a very novel event where we incorporated the audience into 10 different fun events such as snatch the bacon, x’s and o’s, cups and saucers to name a few. The 10 winners then went into an overall final to win a fabulous prize sponsored by John Cox’s company RSS. The prize is a 100 euro voucher for a place of the winners choice and a 400 euro coaching workshop voucher for the club of their choice. The winner of the overall prize on the evening was Clare Dunne from St Farnan’s. Big congratulations to Clare and a big thank you to RSS for this fabulous prize.

Their was also 10 prizes for each of the qualifier events on the evening also and we would like to thank the following for their generous prizes.
